"I enjoy working with Camelia String Quartet for weddings. They provide beautiful instrumental pre-ceremony and ceremony music that I have complemented by playing specific songs that have meaningful lyrics for the couple or just by providing microphones for the officiant, groom, and those reading poems or verses during the ceremony. The quartet is quite versatile, playing both classical and contemporary music that sets the mood for a great celebration!"

Weddings start ramping up in March. So far, we haven't had anyone cancel their weddings, so we haven't been affected. Hopefully, wedding couples will be able to figure this out so they still have their special day.

Wishing Well. It preceded Michaels, Hobby Lobby, etc. It wasn't all that big, but you could find everything you needed for a party or event & the prices were great. It just couldn't compete. It closed several years ago & I still miss it.

My home land line is our business line. I only give out my cell # to the client or planner a week or so before the wedding in case they need to contact us at the last minute. This has worked out for us very well.

As a string quartet, our best method of finding new clients from the very beginning, has been to play bridal shows and public events. We play for weddings, dinners, corporate events & more. People often don't realize they'd like a quartet at their event until they hear us live.
